Got 'er done !!

I finished the Christmas Ornament doll yesterday. I like the new wings. Here's how I made them. I cut out the paper from the old burned wings - leaving the wire paper-covered. Then I glued on some sheer silver fabric that has glittered snowflakes on it. Let dry overnight under some heavy books (ummm, the wings were between sheets of wax paper, of course). Then I painted the edges of the wings with 14K Gold - Delta Gleam paint. Painted the inside with Blue/Green Lumiere paint. It nearly matches the fabric for her outfit. I'm pretty pleased with this. I'll probably take it to the craft show and try to sell it. Not sure what to ask for it though. She's 13" long. Suggestions, anyone?

Judi, she is adorable! You are such a whiz at embellishing and the wings look smashing! I am sure you will have no problem selling her- are you going to make some more to take to the show/sale?

She is beautiful. I wouldn't have recognised those wings but then I knew you would turn them into something beautiful. I love what you have done with her and I hope you get lots and lots of money for her. A shame though she will be sold.
